BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates to Wortmannin analogs, and has application to methods of using these derivatives to inhibit PI-3-kinase activity and to treat certain malignant tumors. Wortmannin is a known potent inhibitor of phosphotidylinositol-3-kinase (PI-3-kinase) and anti-cancer agent. Wortmannin is a naturally occurring compound isolated from culture broths of the fungus Penicillium wortmannin and has the basic structure shown in U.S. Patent No. U.S. Pat. No. 5,480,906, which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0003] One of the disadvantages of wortmannin is its toxicity to living creatures. Even in low dosages, wortmannin in pure form was often lethal to laboratory animals.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] The current invention concerns the discovery that wortmannin analogs are useful in the inhibition of cancer. FIG. 1 illustrates the general structure of compounds in accordance with the present invention. FIG. 2 illustrate specific wortmannin analogs in accordance with the present invention and FIG. 3 illustrates certain other wortmannin analogs that may be useful in accordance with the present invention.

[0017] The biosynthetic production of wortmannin is well known in the art and the analogs are synthesized from wortmannin. U.S. Pat. No. 5,480,906, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, describes typical synthetic schemes. Typically, wortmannin is produced by the fermentation of any one of a number of previously disclosed microorganisms such as Talaromyces wortmannin and Penicillium wortmannin, Myrothecium roridium, and Fusarium. Following fermentation, wortmannin is extracted and purified via known methods. Preferably, wortmannin is microbially synthesized and isolated in substantially pure form from a fermentation culture) one such fermentation culture is identified as A24603.1).

[0018] Culturing the strain under submerged aerobic conditions in a suitable culture medium until a recoverable amount of wortmannin is produced produces Wortmannin. Wortmannin can be recovered using various isolation and purification procedures understood in the art.

[0019] The medium used to grow the culture can be any one of a number of media. For economy in production, optimal yield, and ease of product isolation, however, preferred carbon sources in large-scale fermentation are glucose and soluble starch such as corn starch. Maltose, ribose, xylose, fructose, galactose, mannose, mannitol, potato dextrin, methyl oleate, oils such as soybean oil and the like can also be used.

[0020] Preferred nitrogen sources are enzyme-hydrolyzed casein and cottonseed flour, although pepsinized milk, digested soybean meal, fish meal, corn steep liquor, yeast extract, acid-hydrolyzed casein, beef extract, and the like can also be used.

[0021] Among the nutrient inorganic salts that can be incorporated in the culture media are the customary soluble salts capable of yielding calcium, magnesium, sodium, ammonium, chloride, carbonate, sulfate, nitrate, zinc, and like ions. Essential trace elements necessary for the growth and development of the organism also should be included in the culture medium. Such trace elements commonly occur as impurities in other substituents of the medium in amounts sufficient to meet the growth requirements on the organism.

[0022] For production of substantial quantities of wortmannin, submerged aerobic fermentation in stirred bioreactors is preferred. Small quantities of wortmannin may be obtained by shake-flask culture. Because of the time-lag in production commonly associated with inoculation of large bioreactors with the spore form of the organism, it is preferable to use vegetative inoculum. The vegetative inoculum is prepared by inoculating a small volume of culture medium with the spore form or mycelial fragments of the organism to obtain a fresh, actively growing culture of the organism. The vegetative inoculum medium can be the same as that used for larger fermentations, but other media are also suitable.

[0023] Following its production, wortmannin can be recovered from the fermentation medium by methods used in the art. The wortmannin produced during fermentation of the A24603.1 organism, for example, occurs mainly in the broth.

[0024] Typically, wortmannin can be recovered from the biomass by a variety of techniques. A preferred technique involves filtering whole fermentation broth with a ceramic filter. The filtrate is eluted with an organic solvent such as ethyl acetate and concentrated. The concentrate is suspended in alcohol until crystallization occurs and the solution is filtered, washed and dried. For confirmation, the crystalline material is dissolved in an organic solvent and chromatographed on a reverse-phase silica gel absorbent (C₈ or C₁₈). Fractions are eluted in an organic-aqueous buffer such as 60% acetonitrile.

[0025] Wortmannin may be further manipulated to arrive at the compounds of the present invention. Although the synthesis of particular analogs of wortmannin are illustrated below, other synthetic schemes common in the art will allow one ordinarily skilled in the art to synthesize compounds in accordance with the present invention, and the synthetic schemes set forth herein should, in no way, be considered limiting.

[0032] For therapeutic treatment of the specified indications, a wortmannin analog of FIGS. 1-3 may be administered as such, or can be compounded and formulated into pharmaceutical compositions in unit dosage form for parenteral, transdermal, rectal, nasal, local intravenous administration, or, preferably, oral administration. Such pharmaceutical compositions are prepared in a manner well known in the art and comprise at least one active compound selected from the group consisting of those wortmannin analogs of FIGS. 1-3 associated with a pharmaceutically carrier. The term “active compound”, as used throughout this specification, refers to at least one compound selected from compounds of the formulas or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.

[0033] The term “effective amount” as used herein, means an amount of a compound of the present invention that is capable of inhibiting, blocking, or reversing the activation, migration, or proliferation of cells. The activity contemplated by the present methods includes both medical therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment, as appropriate. The specific dose of a compound administered according to this invention to obtain therapeutic and/or prophylactic effects will, of course, be determined by the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, for example, the compound administered, the route of administration, and the condition being treated.

[0034] The compounds are effective over a wide dosage range and, for example, dosages per day will normally fall within the range of from 0.001 to 10 mg/kg, more usually in the range of from 0.01 to 1 mg/kg. However, it will be understood that the effective amount administered will be determined by the physician in the light of the relevant circumstances including the condition to be treated, the choice of compound to be administered, and the chosen route of administration, and therefore the above dosage ranges are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

[0035] The term “inhibiting” includes the administration of a compound of the present invention to prevent the onset of the symptoms, alleviating the symptoms, or eliminating the disease, condition or disorder.

[0036] In such a composition, the active compound is known as “active ingredient”. In making the compositions, the active ingredient will usually be mixed with a carrier, or diluted by a carrier, or enclosed within a carrier that may be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the carrier serves as a diluent, it may be a solid, semisolid, or liquid material that acts as a vehicle, excipient of medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the composition can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, emulsions, solutions, syrups, suspensions, soft and hard gelatin capsules, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders.

[0037] Some examples of suitable carriers, excipients, and diluents include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate alginates, calcium salicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, tragacanth, gelatin, syrup, methyl cellulose, methyl- and propylhydroxybenzoates, talc, magnesium stearate, water, and mineral oil. The formulations can additionally include lubricating agents, wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, preserving agents, sweetening agents or flavoring agents. The compositions may be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained, or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing procedures well known in the art.

[0038] For oral administration, a compound can be admixed with carriers and diluents, molded into tablets, or enclosed in gelatin capsules. The mixtures can alternatively be dissolved in liquids such as 10% aqueous glucose solution, isotonic saline, sterile water, or the like, and administered intravenously or by injection.

[0039] By “pharmaceutically acceptable”, it is meant the carrier, diluent or excipient must be compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.

[0040] The local delivery of inhibitory amounts of active compound for the treatment of cancer can be by a variety of techniques that administer the compound at or near the proliferative site. Examples of local delivery techniques are not intended to be limiting but to be illustrative of the techniques available. Examples include local delivery catheters, site specific carriers, implants, direct injection, or direct applications. Local delivery by a catheter allows the administration of a pharmaceutical agent directly to the proliferative site.

[0041] Local delivery by an implant describes the surgical placement of a matrix that contains the pharmaceutical agent into the proliferative lesion. The implanted matrix releases the pharmaceutical agent by diffusion, chemical reaction, or solvent activators.

[0042] Another example is the delivery of a pharmaceutical agent by polymeric endoluminal sealing. This technique uses a catheter to apply a polymeric implant to the interior surface of the lumen. The pharmaceutical agent incorporated into the biodegradable polymer implant is thereby released at the surgical site. It is described in PCT WO 90/01969 (Schindler, Aug. 23, 1989).

[0043] A final example of local delivery by an implant is by direct injection of vesicles or microparticulates into the proliferative site. These microparticulates may be composed of substances such as proteins, lipids, carbohydrates or synthetic polymers. These microparticulates have the pharmaceutical agent incorporated throughout the microparticle or over the microparticle as a coating. Delivery systems incorporating microparticulates are described in Lange, Science 249: 1527-1533 (September, 1990) and Mathiowitz, et al., J. App. Poly. Sci., 26:809 (1981).

[0044] Local delivery by site specific carriers describes attaching the pharmaceutical agent to a carrier which will direct the drug to the proliferative lesion. Examples of this delivery technique include the use of carriers such as a protein ligand or a monoclonal antibody.

[0045] Local delivery by direct application includes the use of topical applications. An example of a local delivery by direct application is applying the pharmaceutical agent to the arterial tumor or area left behind after resection of the tumor.

[0046] Formulation of wortmannin analogs is well known in the art as is the fermentation process. Rather than get into exhaustive detail regarding synthetic scheme or formulation, the present invention relies on the skilled artisan to use those common synthetic and formulation techniques to synthesize compounds of the following general formula:

[0047] Wherein Y is a heteroatom and R1 or R2 are unsaturated alkyl, non-linear alky, branched alky, substituted alkyl or cyclic alkyl. Preferably, the present invention has a chemical formula corresponding to those shown in FIGS. 1-3. Even more preferably, the present invention has a chemical formula in accordance with those shown in FIG. 2.

[0048] The proliferation of cells is dependent on the PI 3-kinase—AKT—mTOR signaling pathway. In addition signaling through PI 3-kinase and AKT appears to inhibit apoptosis.

[0050] The ability of wortmannin and the analogues to inhibit phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase and mTOR is expressed as the dose to cause 50% inhibition (IC₅₀). Cytotoxicity-Growth inhibition of human MCF-7 breast cancer cells was measured over 4 days using the MTT assay expressed as the dose to cause 50% inhibition (IC₅₀). Toxicity—Groups of 3 C57BL6 mice were administered wortmannin at doses of 1,2 or 3 mg/kg or the analogues at 1, 3, 9 or 18 mg/kg where sufficient compound was available by the intraperitoneal route daily for 4 days. The animals were killed 24 hr after the last dose and differential blood counts and serum chemistry determined. The major toxicities observed were liver toxicity and lymphocytopenia with decreased red blood cell counts and increased serum glucose at higher doses. Toxicities are measured at the maximum tolerated dose or the highest dose tested Liver toxicity is measured as the mean percent increase in serum ALT and AST expressed relative to wortmannin as 1.0. Lymphocytopenia is expressed as the percent decrease in lymphocyte counts relative to wortmannin as 1.0. A low liver toxicity and a high lymphocyte toxicity as a surrogate for inhibition of tumor cell growth is the desirable feature. Highlighted are the compounds being made for antitumor testing.

[0051] Based on the above evidence, it would appear that an inhibitor of PI 3-kinase will inhibit cell growth and survival. Moreover, PI 3-kinase inhibitors should also inhibit the local inflammatory response, especially in the case of a bioprosthetic implant, which could be favorable factor for long-term engraftment or other bioprosthetic implant. In principle, the wortmannin derivatives could be ideal agents for inducing a temporary block of the PI 3-kinase—AKT—mTOR pathway.
